Sustainable Easy Wash

It is an anti-shrinkage enzymatic and oxidants treatment that allows the use of Alpaca yarns in new products that require machine washing and -very importantly- it is made in a sustainable and environmentally friendly way.

The characteristics of the new Sustainable Easy Wash Alpaca yarns are:

- The natural character of the fiber is maintained, and not as other treatments that loses it because the fiber is covered with synthetic material.

- We obtain a cleaner (whiter) fiber compared to the yellowing acquired by other treatments.

- All the treatment is free of chlorine, resins and sulfuric acid, so do not present any kind of contamination to the tributaries.

- Do not contain any type of harmful chemicals.

- It is approved by Oekotex, Blue Sign and Reach.

- Maximum shrinkage is only about 8%.
